Referees Garrett Rank and Jean Hebert have been paired up throughout the playoffs, working NYI/CAR Game 1, TOR/BOS Game 2, FLA/TBL Game 4, VGK/DAL Game 5, and VAN/NSH Game 6 (VAN W 1-0, series clincher)  in the opening round.  They’ve also officiated BOS/FLA Game 2, NYR/CAR Game 4, and COL/DAL Game 5 in Round 2. 

Rank and Hebert aren’t shy about dishing out PIMs to clean up the ice.  handed out 12 misconduct penalties at Bruins/Panthers Game 2.  Referee Garrett Rank also famously issued misconduct penalties to “everybody on the ice” earlier this season.

The Canucks have won four straight games under referee Garrett Rank.

Number in orange/parentheses indicated referee’s rank among active officials.

* Penalty Differential represents the absolute value of the variance of penalty calls by team per game. If Team A takes two more penalties (or two fewer) than Team B, this is a 2.  Lower numbers indicate less variance between total penalties in a game – that is, a closer number of calls for both teams.
